You don't tell fetchmail anything. If you care to read the manfile; "Disposal Options -a, --all (Keyword: fetchall) Retrieve both old (seen) and new mes sages from the mailserver. The default is to fetch only messages the server has not marked seen. Under POP3, this option also forces the use of RETR rather than TOP. Note that POP2 retrieval behaves as though --all is always on (see RETRIEVAL FAILURE MODES below) and this option does not work with ETRN or ODMR." /magnus -- Word of the week: shou tào (mittens) <http://x42.com/i/cn/pct/shou_tao.jpg>
